Winter Coming

The trees are
handcuffed today

by a frigid wind.

Its un-repenting force
arrives as a tormenting
storm

unwilling to share
the shore

windy shuffles rooting
for a new season.

Encouraging comments like yours, Nathan, are precious. As you can see, my writing muscles are flexing with excitement. All the best, from my wife, Esther and I. ps. We are going to visit our only daughter, Susan and her family on their little ranch in Alberta next week, for two weeks. My favourite farm animal they have is their donkey, Eeyore, a miniature. He can outrun the horse. Really.
